Drazen would’ve been great in today’s NBA. I didnt watch the Nets much but man he could shoot 3’s.

Peja as well if he played ten yrs later. He’d be a Way bigger asset.

Do we all forget that the Euro's changed basketball?

7'0 forwards shooting 3's.
Euro step.
Deft passing.

Not the so-called "Euro Step."
That was being done before Bob Cousy played>LOL
I cringe when I ever I hear that term being used.
How about this "Euro Step" from this 7' ?

How about this? First player in the Video is DR. J !

https://youtu.be/YAEPA-_ulPE

I'll give them the 7' shooting 3's. Dirk was the first to be able to hit 3's on a consistent bases?

Ginobili made the Euro Step popular. That's easy research. He did that second move laterally that was different than the usual 2 step.

Back in the 90's you had big guys running the floor and making 3's and passing like point guards.

Read above and all those players were big guys that changed the game to how it's played.

Watching Shaq go cost to coast was always entertainment, lol!

The so-called Euro Step was being done well before Ginobili.

I think a lot of people forget how well Shaq could run when he was younger. It was scary and, like you said, entertaining.

My bad..i was thinking that, this guy loves money..a lot..

No worries. That is not a saying here. Slave to the money I guess can be but when used with African Americans there is a sensitivity here to the word slave.
Get what I think you were saying....he did take a lot of criticism for his "Republicans buy sneakers, too" comment.

Apologies for the word..

I don't think any apologies are needed. I assumed it was just a translation thing.
Props to you for being able to communicate so well in English.
I don't disagree that he seemed to worship the mighty dollar....but I can respect that he just wanted to play ball and cash checks. (And gamble, he wanted to gamble! Lol)

Could you even imagine how passionate and driven MJ may have sounded, had he used his platform to speak out against political issues and racial inequality? I can't blame anyone for not using their platform. We all in essence have a platform and there is always a risk when exercising free speech. The man focused his energy mainly on athletic competition and I can't imagine he would have much left to give outside of that given the intensity in which he focused that energy.

MJ staying clear of most of that is one thing I respected him for.

Of course it was, that's why I said Manu made it popular.

Shaq could handle the ball well and no one was getting in his way when he was full speed, they'd be dead!

You think MJ could have been at Ali levels?

No I think it would have been a different tone. Probably less flamboyant. He’s such a competitor I wonder how far he would take in winning a political argument.
